Tufts iGEM team wins Bronze in 2016 Jamboree!
Congratulations to the members of the Tufts Synthetic Biology 2016 iGEM Team for winning bronze in the Fall Jamboree in Boston!
Come support our team on Nov. 5, 2016 at Sound Bites in Somerville!
Sound Bites has generously agreed to share proceeds from its business between 2pm and 9pm on 11/5 to Tufts Synthetic Biology! More information on the Facebook page.
The program was organized through community fundraising site GroupRaise.
Joe, Todd, Venkatesh, and Prof. Nair attend the annual AIChE meeting in San Francisco, CA (Nov 13-18)
Joe in front of his poster on engineering probiotics to treat Galactosemia.
Todd presents his talk on engineering an E. coli consortium to efficiently assimilate hexoses in lignocellulosic biomass.
Venkatesh apparently gave a talk on engineering a synthetic regulon in yeast… but since there are no pictures confirming it I’m not sure it happened 🙂
Prof. Nair presents a talk on Todd’s project on engineering bacteria as therapeutics to combat wound infections.
Prof. Nair meets up with current and former colleagues from Huimin Zhao‘s (UIUC) lab including Zengyi Shao (Iowa State), Tyler Johannes (U of Tulsa), Ee Lui Ang (A-STAR), Zhilei Chen (Texas A&M), and Edgar Goluch (Northeastern).
